‘Supergirl’ Adds Italia Ricci As DC Villain Silver Banshee

Supergirl is getting deeper into the DC Comics mythology as ET Online broke the news that Chasing Life’s Italia Ricci has been cast as the famous DC villain Silver Banshee on the CBS series. She will be a recurring guest star starting with episode 14 which will air sometime in 2016. Here is how Supergirl describes their take on the character:

“Ricci will play Siobhan Smythe, Cat Grant’s latest hire at CatCo, who at first becomes a work nemesis for Kara but proves a more deadly foe for Supergirl when she becomes DC villain Silver Banshee.”

Fun little DC TV trivia: Ricci has another DC TV connection within the Berlanti-Verse as she is engaged with The Flash’s Ronnie Raymond/Firestorm himself, Robbie Amell.
